Super nice High Heaven Deb, in fact when I first looked I hadn't scrolled the page down far enough and I thought wow!!! look at all them ruffles on High Voltage.

A much darker for me  Cranberry Muffin and a couple of Pineapple Sundae's.

I bought a new big plant pot [1 meter square and I bought 2] and am still in shock at the 40usd price, but it will hold 3 cv's in 1 gallon pots and growing in the middle of it is a new Plumeria to give them shade, at least that cost nothing as I took a cutting from a tree by the beach.

I'm wondering if you have experienced the same thing I have this past week. It seems weird but almost all the blooms that usually last 1 or 2 days have been holding both their form and colors for 3-5 days. The pictures below are mostly 2 or 3 day shots taken yesterday but they all appear unchanged today on their 3rd, 4th, or 5th days.

Erny

Erny I'm seeing the exact same thing here.  It seems like as soon as Nov rolled around my blooms got winterized and are lasting the same length as yours.  It seems like everything slows down to a third of the speed it is during summer.  I hope that is not the same for the growth...your Flickering Flame is outstanding.

Deb every time I see your Bienvenue I am blown away by those bright colors!

David your Pineapple Sundaes are amazing - those eye zones are so vibrant with those bright red rings around the eye.

All Thanksgiving treats for sure for me!

David, I agree with Darren--beautiful eyes on those Pineapple Sundaes. Don't feel too bad about the large pots. We would probably pay twice as much here for a beautiful large pot like that.

My blooms are lasting several days also this time of year.

David, what kind of material is that pot made of? Looks awesome.

Wow Fantastic everyone!

Erny Ruby Tuesday and Blue Ballerina are standouts for me Smiley

Deb, always enjoy seeing fellow indoor growers

Dave, looks like the weather is cooling off enough for you to start getting blooms

John I am not really sure, I think they are a cast concrete, they are extremely heavy and it took 2 guys to carry them up here. I have quite a few now, all smaller of course and you can see they have been hand painted, no idea what the Chinese symbols stand for that are painted on there.

Some branch tip rot for anyone interested in what it looks like.  On this branch I never touched it - it just developed on it's own as the growth tips died down and must have kept on dying down.  Now I'll be watching to see if it spreads down further or if the plants will stop it on it's own.

Hi All from South Carolina!

I woke up this morning to my first bloom (so this is my first posting of a Charlie cv)! Blue Ballerina decided to show me all her glory.....a bloom I had been anticipating for weeks!  My plants have been indoors for about a month now and really seem to be loving the sunny bedroom they are occupying.  The first photo is Blue Ballerina and the second are the seedlings I found on my nursery bought hibiscus.

Happy Holidays!

Vicki, you will really like Blue Ballerina. Once it starts blooming, it never seems to stop. It has been the most prolific bloomer for me over the past several weeks. Noting your Clemson logo--tough loss to USC this weekend.
Also Bridal Path, California Beauty, Slapstick, Sizzle, and Bright Horizon.
